Kids from WisconsinWith the theme “Head Out on the Highway,” this year’s show will take audiences on a journey celebrating the richness and variety of American music. The production moves from classic rock to country, jazz to pop, and Broadway musicals to Tin Pan Alley. The performance features an all-American roster of composers including Chuck Berry, Jefferson Airplane, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Elvis, Celine Dion and Leonard Bernstein. Audiences will be transported to famous Broadway musicals and Hollywood’s award-winning films.

 

According to troupe producer Taras Nahirniak, “Our number one objective is to entertain and showcase Wisconsin’s most talented young performers.” This is what they will do as they travel nearly 6000 miles, perform in over 35 communities and provide outreach workshops to nearly 1000 youth across the state with a free, hands-on performing arts workshop in select locations.

 

“The KIDS producer brings a unique perspective to his role, recognizing both the traditions of a KIDS show along with evolving audience preferences. He seamlessly blends these elements in this performance,” says Executive Director Tina Weiss.
